WILL NOT STAND THE DEAL Demoorats Protest Against a Bribery Nominated Candidate. WILL REPUDIATE CONVENTION'S ACTION Evidence in Hand that Frank John- won's Nomination Was Bought and For in the Convention Hall Luast Saturday. The democrats of Omahe, South Omaha and Douglas county are in open revolt. Unhesitatingly they declare that they will never submit to the methods adopted in the convention last Saturday afternoon, whereby Frank B. Johnson was nominated as a candi- date for the office of clerk of the district court. 1t is now positively known that one-third of the votes which Johnson received were bought and paid for in cash. Of the South Omaha delegation it 1s a well known fact that the sale and delivery of the votes were made right in the convention hall. When the convention convened Saturday afternoon the South Omaha delegation was almost solld for Coe. As It progressed, a check, signed by Frank B Johnson for $380, was written at a table on the platform. This check was drawn on the Midland bank, John- son’s own bank, and turned over in payment for the delivery of the South Omaha vote. The man to whom it was given, and who is well known, did not have the courage to present it for payment. Late Saturday evening a number of the members of the gang got together, raised the money, took up the check, and the amount called for on its face was distributed among the men who had sold themselves, body and soul, to the combine, Democrats have become aware of the high- handed bribery, and as a result they have decided to repudiate the action of the con- vention 8o far as the nomiration of the clerk of the district court is concerned. The citizens of South Omaha, without re- gard to party, are making preparations for an indignation meeting to be held Wednesday evening at Young Men's Institute hall, to protest against and denounce the actlon of the South Omaha delegation to the recent democratic county vention. IN THE FAF NTH WARD, n Candidates Ada ing of Twenty-two able-bodied Seventh ward, not counting George Stryker and J. Whiskers Eller, assembled in mass meeting at Hibbeler's hall at Forty-fourth and Leavenworth streets last night to listen to the discussion of the Issues of the cam- paign. The twenty-third man was expected and President Stryker didn't like to open the meeting without him. After waitnig until 9 o'clock it was decided to run the show through with the audlence shy one man. The first bout was between Candidates Taylor and Ambler, who want to represent the Seventh ward in the council. Mr. Taylor opened with a careful statement to the effect that he was an old time resident of the ward and had the interests of the city at heart. Mr. Ambler followed and told his hearers that he would simply be a peach of a council- man 1f he got a chance. He Insisted that he didn't want to say anything against Mr. Taylor, and then went on to hint about a man who had commenced suit against the city for damages for the grading of Leavenworth street when he was really benefited. Taylor retorted and sald Ambler was not without guile, and there promised to be a scrap and Would—Haye-heen if thera had been people enough present to' dividé into #ides on the issue. Justice Baldwin talked on his candidacy for policd judge, Colonel Mel Redfield told all about his chances for county elerk, Judge Scott made a speech—same old speech—and John Westberg closed the meeting with a request that the Seventh warders give him a lift in his race for the nomination for city comptroller, Tt was nearly midnight when all the speakers had been given a chance and the club adjourned for a w Hroatch Na d the Del Tho meeting of the Fourth ward repub- licans was held last night at Washington hall.

Agalnst C Drawing Double S It was expected that the investigation Into the affairs of the clerk of the district court, as asked for in the complaint which s on file with the Board of County Commission- ers against Frank Moores, would be begun yesterday, but the hearing was once more postponed. Chairman Willlams stated that the board intended to sit every day until the Investigation was completed, and thereupon one of the attorneys for the complainants stated that he would be unable to attend every day. Some of the members of the board did not appear to be anxious that the hearing should start at once and as none of the attorneys seemed to desire that the hear- ing bz begun a motion was made and carried adjourning it until Wednesday morning, Octo- ber 16, at 10 o'clock. A report from the finance committee rec- ommending that certain claims of county employes for witness fees be allowed, raised considerable discussion. The fees aggre- gated about $45, of which amount Sherift Drexel drew $14 and Assistant County At- torney Day $8. The fees had been disal- lowed once, but as the certificates had been cashed by a broker who asserted that he had paid the money in good fatth and should not be compelled to stand the loss, the commit- tee reconsidered its action. Stenberg sald that he was getting tired of paylng two salaries to county employes, their regular monthly salary and witness tees, and thought that county employes, It called upon the stand, should not be paid, it they were drawing their salaries at the time. Jenkins was of the same opinion and cited a case where an employe of the county clerk's office had drawn $36 for service on the jury and during the same time he drew his regular salary. Stenberg Introduced the following resolu- tlon, which was unanmously passed: Decision oyes The clerk of the district court Is hereby Instructed not to Issue certificates for wit- ness fees in district court and insane cases to county employes who are on the pay roll of Douglas county and drawing a stipulated salary. The two clalmants for damages, Kasper Kauffman and Henry Hively, who were in- jured while engaged on county work last winter, provided for by the board, and who demanded $5,000 damages each, were allowed nothing. The men were hurt by the caving in of a bank on the South Thirteenth street road on February 6. Kauffman had already been pald damages, yet he filed a claim for more. Hively had not received any pay for damages. It is alleged that when he applied for work he was not entitled to char- ity, and that he procured his postion through fraud. Commissioner Sutton sald that he was in a position to prove that when Hively made application he was making money. Coutant & Squires were awarded the con- tract for furnishing the court house with 300 tons of anthracite coal during the winter at a cost of §7.50 per ton. C. B. Havens was awarded a contract for supplylng the county poor farm with seventy-five cars of nut coal at $1.85 per ton, and G. M. McGeath got the contract for furnishing the same institution with twenty-five cars of steam coal at $2.45 A ton, County Judge Baxter submitted a report for the quarter ending September 1, which showed a deficit of $296.44 for the quarter.

SIGWART CHIEF OF POLICE Appointment by Fire and Police Gommis- sioners Last Night, BOARD UNANIMOUS IN ITS ACTION harges of Cownrdice Against Wite tum Dismissed and n Chance Given Him to Resign—Complaints for Violating Slocumb Law, Captain A. T. Sigwart, who since the mid- dle of September had been acting chief of the Omaha police department, was last night by the Board of Fire and Police Commis- sloners appointed chief of police. The con- clusion of the members was reached in ex- ecutive session, and the sentiment in favor of Sigwart was unanimous. The formal ap- pointment was made in open session, Mr. Sigwart has been a member of the police force for fourtcen years, beginning as a patrolman, and at a time when the de- partment contained but twelve men. The vacancy In captaincy caused by Mr. Sigwart’s promotion will be filled by the re- tention of Sergeant King, who has been act- ing captain for several weeks. Chairman Broatch, In speaking about Sig- wart’s appointment, said that a few weeks ago several applications for the position of chief were on file and were under considera- tion, but that Sigwrrt had given the board such satisfaction in this capacity that it was determined to permanently retain him. George F. Wittum, who was discharged from the police force for cowardice shown at the time of the arrest of suspected safeblow- ers at Gibson, made another statement to the board by permission. The charge of cowardice was dismissed and Mr. Wittum given an op- portunity to resign. Patrolman John Ravencamp was granted twenty days' leave: Sergeant Bebout, five; Detective Hudson, ten; Patrolman Tiedeman, elght; Havey, five; Hinfeldt, five; Fireman Wayrin, seven, John Brady, specfal officer at Fritz Wirth's beer garden, resigned and his resignation was accepted. Harding and L. Record complained against Detective Hudson. They sald that they found Saturday a lady's hand satchel, containing a diamond ring valued at $100, and the next morning an offer of reward was published in The Bee, the property to be re- turned to 3603 North Twenty-fourth street, They intended to return the property, but al- lege that the detective secured it from them under threat of arrest and got the reward. The complaint was referred to the committee on men and discipline. Acting Chief Sigwart reported Richard Burdish, Tenth and Davenport streets, whose license is held by John Morhover; Dave Ma- honey, 1124 Chicago street, whose license is held by Willlam Krug, and Carter & Tut- hill, 218 South Fourteenth street, whose li- cense is held by Foley & Carter, for selling liquor last Sunday. Complaint was also- made by the acting chief that Burdish sold liquor September 20. It was based on the reports of Officer Halter and Sergeant Cory, who said that they had watched Burdish's place on that Sunday and that they saw people golng out and in the back door of the saloon all day. Sergeant King was “instructed to swear out a complaint, but City Prosecutor Shoemaker refused to file it, giving as a reason that the evidence was not sufficlent to conviet, eince no testimony that drinking was done in the saloon was promised. The reports were filed, Germania_council No. 2, Order of Chosen Friends, asked that permission be glven to keep Metz hall open after midnight October 26, on the occasion of a social of the order, The request was refused. preiens il Diphtheria Discovered When a case of diptherla is reported the whole town s in an uproar.

A DEMOCRAT. ———— NEBRASKA'S SUGAR INDUSTRY. This Year's Output of the Oxnard Factories Esxtimated. Henry T. Oxnard and John G. Hamilton of the Oxnard Beet Sugar company are In the city. According to these authorities Ne- braska is gathering an immense sugar beet crop. All that it needed to bring it up to the highest standard is a brief dry period that will develop more saccharine matter and make the beets mora valuable s sugar pro- ducers, These gentlemen estimate the value of the product of Nebraska's beet sugar in- dustry for the coming year at over $800,000. Of this, about $400,000 will go to the farm- ers in payment for the beets and about $3° who attended the demoesatic county con"n-l 000 will be expended for labor and materials. Next year it is anticipated that the number of beet sugar factories will be increased and the product correspondingly larger and more valuable. Edwin Milton Royle’s play,“Mexico,” which, by reason of its newness, has not yet attained that measure of popularity which the future surely has in store for it, had its first repre- sentation In Omaha at the Creighton theater last night before a large and highly appre- clative audience, In this, the work of his maturer genius, Mr. Royle has departed radically from the type of drama and character which he em- ployed so successfully in his earlier play, “Friends.” He has gone for his materials and his local coloring to that land which, lying close to the southern borders of our own, is yet pratically to the people of the United States an undiscovered country. Entered and humiliated fifty years ago by a hostile army from our greater republic, Mexico, despite the war which Mr. Royle has used as a background for his play, remains for the most part unvisited and unknown. The glories of its wonderful past are cele- brated in the romantic histories of Mr. Pres- cott; recent fiction, newspaperr and other, has depicted the present physical characteristics of the country and the moral attitudes of the people, both being apparently hot and vol- canic. Mr. Royle would have earned the gratitude of the theater going public by put- ting the plow of the pioneer playwright into this fertile and fallow fleld, even if he had done no more, but he would appear to have made a wise and judicious selection from the wealth of materials-at his command, and to have combined them deftly into one of the most enjoyable plays of recent years. Authorities may differ as to the justice of the war with Mexico; there can be no divergence of opinion as to the heroism of the men who partieipated in it on the one side and the other. The story of the play under consideration has been sufficiently de- tailed heretofore. It abounds in picturesque incidents, stirring episodes, ardent love scenes and powerful and well-contrived climaxes. “Mexico” s a play which carries audiences with it irresistibly, even at times to the white heat of enthusiasm. While the horrors of war are rather suggested tuan depicted, the piece breathes the very atmosphere of the strife of an invading army-and a people foredoomed to defeat. The threads of comedy, which the author has skillfully woven into the fabric of the narrative, only serve to accentuate the lurid background of conflict. Certain irregu- larities, which at presenti mar the perfect symmetry of Mr. Royle's creation, and which are surprisingly few in number considered with the magnitude of the double task of the author-actor, and the comparatively few times the piece has been presented publicly, will wear away soon, and ‘‘Mexico,” as it is better known, will come into its rightful place among the plays of the decade. As Captain Shields, the Impetuous South Carolinian, whose adventures in love and war have much to do with the plot of the play, Mr. Royle achieved a distinct success, He is a soldierly figure in the uniform of the period, and his finished method of acting was never more in evidence. This virtue seems at times to run into the fault of over-refinement. It he appears wanting in fire when fire is called for, if, in short, e fails through re- pression to fulfill entirely the ideal which he himself as author sets up in the mind, the impersonation as a whole is an excellent one. No one surely has a better right than Mr. Royle to set forth his own conception of the hero of his own play, and if he presents it as consistently and unswervingly as he aid last night, he is entitled to high praise. It is not too much to say that his beautitul and talented wife, Selena Fetter, emphatic- ally carried off the honors of the evening by her fine performance in the role of Jovita. While it cannot yet be, In the nature of things, so polished 3 work of art as her Marguerite Otto, in “Friends,” there are rare possibilities in it of growth for such abilities as Mrs. Royle's. Mr. Henderson surpasses the expectations even of his friends by his vivid and earnest impersonation of the refected Mexican lover. Those who have previously judged him by his musical ability and his somewhat colorless work in “Friends” will revise their prophecies of his future after seeing him in this animated and difficult role. The cast, aside from this trio of estab- lished favorites, is an unusually competent one. Mr. Humphrey contributes a masterly character sketch of the faithful negro Jim, investing the part with genuine pathos and speaking with a dialect of which too much cannot be sald in praise. Miss Gretchen Lyons made a good impression as Lucretia, Mr. Bittner was well liked as Harter, and Miss Rachael Deane did much with a part which presents two phases of character, to say the least, difficult to reconcile, *Mexico' is elaborately and beautifully put on, the setting representing the plaza of Monterey, and that of the final scene at Chapultepec in partichlar being equal to the very best of stage effects.
